| Based on Vertical's previous releases (or upcoming), I am going to guess this could be Galaxy Express 999 or another Leiji Matsumoto manga. Viz did release a newer version of GE999 in 1998.
Of course, this is just wishful thinking by me. |

| Wait, what other Matsumoto manga did they publish? | ||||

| Random guess: the R refers to Rumiko Takahashi and the project is Urusei Yatsura? I dunno. Viz has published so many mangaka it's hard to narrow it down. | ||||

They didn't, they only released the anime. Is it too much for me to hope that they mean Yawara!? Well, since I don't want it flipped, maybe I should hope it isn't.... But let's think about the "R" here. Reiji/Leiji Matsumoto might be a guess on that, except that Viz hasn't released any of his manga. I'm rolling through major unlicensed titles in my head, but I can't think of any that might be coded as "R" but also are from an author Viz has released. Edit: @bahamut They do a lot of retro stuff, so I think that would be a good guess! |

| I actually hope it's Rumiko Takahashi's Urusei Yatsura. I'm not that big of a fan of R. Takahashi, but this series is something I would love to get into. | ||||

| Am I the only one that groaned a little about how cliched this whole thing feels??
Still, it would be awesome if it was Urusei Yatsura or Yawara. |

| Yawara was never published by Viz. One thing's for sure, though. They sure as hell can't mean Flame of Recca. Could be R.O.D., however...Or Utena. Or Red River. | ||||

| I'm really hoping it's Moto Hagio, seeing how she fits Vertical's classic shoujo pattern. | ||||

| I think I know what it is, since Scott tweeted that it's from Tezuka, it's gotta be Ribon No Kishi. | ||||

They say Author not a title previously published by Viz. So it could be Yawara but my guess is it wouldn't be the title. Also knowing the stuff Vertical releases I highly doubt it is any of the titles you listed. I'd guess Leiji Matsumoto or Moto Hagio seem the most likely choices. |

......VIZ released one of the Galaxy Express 999 mangas, about 5 volumes of it, which they serialized in Animerica. I think it was a later revival series Matsumoto did as a sequel to the original, though it works for VIZ to do so since they had the movies out on VHS at the time they started publishing it. http://www.powells.com/ http://www.rightstuf.com/ I'm hoping it's either Captain Harock, or Urusei Yatsura. |

I dunno anything about the big R, but I want more shojo classic from Vertical or if is possible Yawara, would be great!  |
